- We work on humans with @antoniocbscosta.bsky.social @marcoromanato.bsky.social @wyartlab.bsky.social predicting effects of #DBS in Parkinson's Disease patients. Yet, understanding cellular & circuit mechanisms underlying behaviour require model organisms 🎏🐭🪱🪰 & cannot be done in humans nor organoids

- Reposted by Claire WyartDear #izfc2025 participants, if anyone of you are interested in how transcription control defines mRNA fate and translation in zebrafish development, there are/will be several PhD and postdoctoral positions (funded by the Wellcome Trust) for this research. Please find me if interested.

- Reposted by Claire WyartV cool work from @ebriefer.bsky.social et al on how selection for sociability alters vocal signals (in sheep!) bit.ly/40AHKTd 1. Isolation but not feeding calls distinguish 🐑 selected for high vs low sociability 2. More selection for sociability ➡️ Less vocal individuality #prattle 💬 #bioacoustics

- Reposted by Claire WyartDownstream @etlunsford.bsky.social mapped how the corresponding interneurons in the brainstem project onto reticulospinal neurons to select the steering command eliciting either forward or turns ... recalling the pioneering work of @daniobrain.bsky.social on optical motor response to flow!

- Reposted by Claire WyartThe tackle this question, @etlunsford.bsky.social 🌬️ stimulated each & all neuromasts along the body & discovered a simple principle within the brainstem !! Namely, information on location & direction is encoded in an egocentric referential around the center of mass! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Reposted by Claire WyartFish display mechanosensors called neuromasts covering their body from head to tail. In each neuromast, hair cells can sense changes in water flow along different directions in the anteroposterior axis, either tailward or headward. How does the brain compute the flow information across the body? (2)
- Reposted by Claire WyartBy combining controlled mechanical stimulation & whole brain #imaging, @etlunsford.bsky.social revealed an essential principle 💡... Mechanosensory inputs from any directions along the body are encoded relative to the center of mass (COM)! Recalling #olfaction with odors encoded by pleasantness (4)
- Reposted by Claire WyartLet's share @etlunsford.bsky.social's work : to survive, animals avoid drifting involuntarily in their environment. While humans rely on visual & vestibular cues, birds & fish need to sense complex flow changes of the external fluid (air/water) around them to select motor actions. How do they do?(1)
